Hi Aitor,

Sorry for taking so long to resume work on netman. At the moment I am
trying to apply your netman debconf patch. However, git apply --index
../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch is failing complaining that:

../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch:10: trailing whitespace.
#!/bin/sh -e
../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch:23: trailing whitespace.
. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule
../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch:33: trailing whitespace.
db_version 2.0
../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch:34: trailing whitespace.
#db_capb backup
../aitor/debconf-41822e0-27.12.2015.patch:35: trailing whitespace.
db_capb escape
error: patch failed: debian/netman-gui.postinst:1
error: debian/netman-gui.postinst: patch does not apply

What is wrong? I opened the patch with medit to view the offending
characters. In case understanding the cause of this issue an unjustied
long time, I can always apply the patch manually by editing text
directly.
